This week, reader were interested in Brick Underground’s interviews with renters who have tried to rent apartments using vouchers—only to face stonewalling from agents and landlords. This is the part of new series Brick is doing, so stay tuned on more way you can protect your rights if you are a voucher holder yourself.

Also of interest, Brick’s senior writer found out her apartment used to be rent stabilized and checked out whether its deregulated status is legal.
